Hello everyone,

First post here. This is my 22 GSX-S. I bought it last August from a very kind dealer in NY State called Arkport Cycles. Then it was shipped to my home. It has nearly 1,700 miles. Yeah, I really love this bike. I've been riding for four years and have had three motorcycles, but I'm going to keep this one long term. Head over heels for this motorcycle 😍and always feel overwhelmed with gratitude to own this machine.

Beautiful bike and excellent choice going with the Akrapovic slip-on! I've got the same model on an Arrow full system on my 2020 GSX-S. Sounds glorious! 😁

Arkoort Cycles sounds familiar.
We used to live near Batavia. Grew up there.
Riding to Niagara Falls & the Black North up on lake Ontario for their awesome food....miss it!
Sweet bike, I feel the same way, LOVE these bikes. Definitely a keeper!

Thanks guys! Maybe I should have posted in new member section... Oh well.

My mods so far: R&G Frame sliders, Koso heated grips, R&G fender eliminator kit, and Akropovic carbon fiber slip on. Just now feel like the bike is at baseline, if you know what I mean😄 Next up is bar end mirrors

I looked into full exhausts for this new model, and there aren't many options yet. The ones that are available are very expensive, and only for sale from Euro websites. See Motostorm, in Italy. They have fantastic products for sale, by the way. I will probably stand pat with the slip on. Fully aware its 90 percent for looks 😀 And good for one to two HP

Black Widow makes a good full exhaust. I have a Black Widow header and Racefit Growler X slipon. I haven't put the header on yet because my Sprint filter just came in the mail. So I have to send the ecu to Moore Mafia.

I'm supposed to be going on a long ride Saturday with a coworker. Probably wait till Sunday to take the bike down to do the install.

I'll be snapping pictures next week hopefully. I put a deposit down on a 2023. Just waiting for my check to clear and going to pay the rest. Got it for $10,999. Everywhere else around me was the usual $11,499. I wanted the black but the blue looks pretty good too in person. I really like the blue rims.

Can't go wrong with either. But glad I got the blue. I get a lot of compliments on it.

Looks badass bro. And identical to mine! I got it delivered with the akrapovic and tail tidy too

Here in Northern Norway riding weather is still ASS, like 4-6c (around 40 f) and rain for weeks on end (I took the bike out from storage in end of April). Got a single good day ride thus far lmao. This goes out to all of you guys in warmer climate: Appreciate it!!!!!
